filling the theater with smoke. in the end, 12 people died. dozens more hurt. police doing their best to preserve any evidence inside that apartment. adam housely is just outside the apartment reporting for us now live. adam? >> yeah, jon, in fact, they let us move closer about a half hour ago so we have a great vantage point to see the ongoing operations here. straight ahead the apartment complex on the third floor. that is where james holmes' apartment was located. of the five windows located there, four have been knocked out by authorities to get into the complex and to eventually eliminate the threat that was there. it took them about 8 hours by our watch when they first pee began the operations here -- when they first behe began the operations here. you can hear the explosion and we'll explain what happened.

[horn sounding] >> those were the three warning signals we got telling us about 10 seconds away would be an explosion. prior to that we heard fire in the hole yelled three times and then came the boom. take a listen. [explosion] >> that was basically a water bomb. it was placed inside to explode and shoot water out so it wouldn't add fuel to the fire. the water to take out an area in the kitchen that was said to be a circuit board type setup attached to the 30 makeshift grab grenades. authorities tell me they believe be what the point was is whoever entered the apartment from the frontier could have been killed and a fire started in seconds. an intricate setup but they say the explosive devices themselves were pretty amateur.

the tents actually moved this is is from a little earlier. atf agents along with fbi agents took out parts of each device. there will eventually be a prosecution in regard to explosives on a federal level but they took a little bit of each out. and then they took each device out individually after the threat was taken out and put it into a p truck. they disposed of the itemsers either burn abouting them or putting small explosive devices to set them off and that is taking place as we speak. look at this apartment complex next door. 1678 paris street. they will be allowed back in here. buses are expected in the next half hour. everybody in the su surrounding apartment complex will be allowed back in. some of the people walking in for the first time since this

a report in the "l. a. times" revealing he spent time as a summer camp counselors is sellor working with underprivileged kids. his former teammates on his high school soccer team calling him "kind of a loner." he earned a degree in neurosigh sense back in 2010. continued his education at the university of colorado denver until cropping out last month and until this point holmes had never had any trouble with police. not even so much as a parking ticket. but holmes now faces a long, long list of charges at least 71 counts. one for each person killed or wounded in the deadly rampage. he is due in court for the first time on monday and now we are learning his defense team will be allowed into the theater for their own research beginning on tuesday. joining us to talk about the legal case going forward, judge jeanine pirro, host of "justice" with judge jeanine.

and he has a defense team. some of the top public defenders in the area will be representing him. >> that makes sense. someone who knows the system. he knows the law and the judge and the considers and he knows how the courts work. we don't know what is going to happen in the future but from his appearance he will be represented by the public defender. >> but there is so many witnesses i don't see anything but a conviction coming out of this case. >> there are several hurdles before you get to that case. number one, is he competent to stand trial. there will be an argument he is not competent to understand the nature of the charges or assist in his defense. number two there is a rumor going around and i'm sure a lot of people think that he will proffer an insanity defense. it doesn't work that well for most defendants i think in one or two percent of the cases. most people saying the fact that he cropped out as he was

as you just reported a smart guy are kind of a good thing might lead some people to think he had to be insane. i happen to believe in evil. he has no history of mental hospitalization or medication or any of that stuff but at the same time if the facts are against you go with insanity and there are those that think you have to be insane to do this. >> all of the preplanning doesn't that suggest a clinical and devious mind? >> the premeditation and calculation and determination and months of ordering the ammunition and all of the ballistic leggings. you can get ammunition and guns and that is not a problem. to get the armor that he got indicates that he won't wanted to protect himself. tells me this guy is thinking like a sane individual. the legal in entertainity is diving for cover rend and that is the only defense they could use here.

>> 71 counts filed against him. >> there are a lot of people now or a few i believe in critical condition. when you say 71, jon, you are not even talking about crime scene number two which is the pear rice street apartment. when i was at the press conference i asked whether or not given the role of the feds, the fbi and atf and all of the other agencies might there be a federal prosecution for something like domestic terrorism? >> they indicated that would probably all be local charges that the feds have come in to assist but it is a lot more than 710 counts. in the end does it mat are one count. >> the indications are little air le on but the prosecutor indicated he doesn't at this point see a reason not to go tore the death penalty. >> the d. a. now, i he understand is a woman, she and she has sought

death six time times. people want to know what is going to happen and whether there is going to be justice here. as you go through the community, you know that people are still in shock. there is going to come a point in time where they are going to really want to know what the system is going to do to the guy who brought hell upon the people of aurora. >> so sad. your heart has to go out to his parents and his family. they apparently had no indication. >> let's hope that is the case. very sad for everyone involved. just a nightmare, a horror. >> sure is. judge, thank you. and you can catch "justice" with judge jeanine from aurora immediately following huckabee which airs this evening on the fox news channel. we will continue our coverage of the movie massacre. >> we start in iowa where investigators are saying that they have evidence that leads them to believe two cousins who
